Message: [QUOTE="alp, post: 145706, member: 4658"] Thank heavens that we have National Trust which allows us to see a lot of historical houses. Houses such as the one which displays Edward VII's abdication letters and the one in which Charles II hid himself to avoid being captured. The Arabs have bought up a big chuck near Buckingham Palace and the queen has to entertain him because of that. Charles and his bit love to visit them to collect jewellery! Money talks .. The Chinese even bid for underground operation, a move I heartily approve. The British went to colonise Hong Kong and yet left the island with efficient management which now will be used to run our ailing infrastructure. Shame it has to come to this. But I bet our lovely cousins your way don't understand how the youths in this country operates. Most employers prefer Eastern Europeans as they would turn up and stick to the jobs! [/QUOTE]
